The Drought in Texas.

SAN ANTONIO, April 6-J. II. Mccarthy resi-
dent of Somerset Atascoso county, for several
years, arrived in this city yesterday, having
been forced to leave his home accoun. of the
severity of the drought, which now aff1icts the
agricultural districts of the State, especially the
southwestern cotton belt. Mr.. Mccarthy saws
the people in the vicinity of Somerset and Ben
ton are holding meetings daily to devise means
of obtaining food for a large portion of the COM
munity who are in need of the common neeess-
ties Many have deserted their homes and
arid fields and gone to search for more favored
localities. Unless there is rain at a very early
day, the situation will be pitiabe. People are
now hauling water distance of ten miles. The
drought has set fence cutters to work again, and
rnncnfnen who own inclosed streams tanks
have their fences cut nightly. The ministers Of
San Antonio have appointed com nittee to
wait the Mayor and request that public
meeting be called. SO that organized relief may
be extended to suffering planters in Bexar and
adjoining counties The ministers have also
opened subscription for the sufferers.

Monitions for Catholics.

TORONTO. April 6.-Archbishop Lynch has is
sued a pastoral letter to the clergy of the arch
diocese, warning Catholics against extravagance
at funerals in the shape of magnificent collins
and heaps of flowers shaped into ludicrous and
unseemlv designs. 1t says The church per-
mits a crown of fowers--as the sign of heavenly
joy-upon the heads of children only who have
not attained the age of reason. A Pile pail is
all she allows on the coffin at the funeral OF
those who have reached the age of reason. You
are hereby enjoined to that these rules of the
church be. for the future, relIgiously and strict
ly carried out
The letter also speaks OF the enormity of turn
ing the great day of grief and mourning. the an
niversary of the death of Christ, in to day OF
pleasure and amusement: day of theaters
aud horse-racing, and prize-shooting. Catholics
must not be led away by the sad example Of peo
pie who too often in ignorance of the mean
ing of the day; who know of Coed Friday this
only, that it is a bank holiday

The Throurh-Ticket Boycott.


PHILADELPHIA. April 6.-In explanation of

regard to the payment of commissions to agents,
An official OF the passenger department. of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. who was pres
emit at the trunk-line meeting yesterday, said
to-day: "The trunk lines. under their inter
probation of the interstate commerce law, are
required to maintain strictly all rates published
BY them. and such rates cannot be maintained
u other roads over which they issue tickets are
permitted to pay commissi ons to their agents.
FOR TINS reason the trunk lines and the Central
Trafhc Association sent circular to all of their
connections asking them to discontinue the pay
ment OF such commissions. One or two of the
western roads have taken an arbitrary stand in
the matter. and have said that they will act
Independently In consequence of this stand
taken by the roads in question, certain of tn cir
competitors have considered that they are
obliged reluctantly 10 take the same position and
TO concur In the action OF the lines that originally
dissepted. This will make about thirty lines
out Of several hundred that will continue
to pay commissions to agents. and
she trunk lines and Central Traffic
Association have given them notice that until
they agree to adopt the practice of the assoca-
ton the trunk lines and Central Traaic Associa-
ton will discontinue to exchange business with
them. This action must not be confused with
any local passenger business"

The War Between East and West.

CHICAGO April 6.-The failure to agree upon
basis for the division of rates to and from
Mississippiriver points Missouri-river bust
ness. and points beyond, has caused a complete
rupture betweed the lines east from Chicago and
those west from this city. All through billing
off freight to all points east of the Missouri
river via Chicago has heen stopped. The East.
roads charge local rates to Chicago. and loo al
rates are added from Chicago to Western poin Is,
which, of course, make the rates via Chicago
materially higher than via st. Louis. Besides,
ali freight from the East has to be rebilled at
Chicago. which is an additional embarrassment.
The roads running west from Chicago de-
termined. it is said. to resist the demands of the
Eastern lines with the means at their command

The r.. C. g. St. L. Complications.


CLEVELAND. O., April Cone of the most
complicated railroad cases ever put on trial was
begun to-day in the United States Circuit Court
Judge Gresham, of the circuit which includes
Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin. met Circuit
Judges Jackson and Welker at Cleveland
to determine certain questions which arose
in the foreclosure of the mortgage on
the Toledo, Cincinnati & st. Louis
railway. The railway in litigation extends from
Toledo to Cincinnati, in tho State of Ohio and
from Toledo through the States Of Indiana and
Illinois TO ST. Louis. The railroad was hardly
completed when it passed into the hands of
ceiver appointed by judges Hammond and
Welker, in August, 1883 The title of
the case is The Central Trust Company
of New York VS.. The Toledo. Gin
cnnati & St Louis Railway Company.
The railroad is the consolidation of eight differ
emit companies and complications have arisen
about apportioning the claims of the creditors
of the various divisions The claims were re-
ferred to w. P. Fishback and A j. Kicks as
special commissioners, and two reports have
been made by Kicks and one by Fshback. The
meeting of Judges Gresham. Jackson and Well
ker is to effect some uniformity of ruling on
these questions IN the two circuits, which have
jurisdiction over different portions of the rail-
way. There is dispute about the payment and
apportionment of from three to four Thousand
claims which ac"rued within the six months
prior to the appointment of the receiver,
and this was argued at length by c.. ".
Fairbanks, to-day. as well as by Col. r. q.
Ineersoll. The question of the apportionment
of liability for $3.50 900 of receivers certificates
is also important item. The aggregate Of all
the claims against the railway amounts TO 81
600, 600. Colonel r. G. Ingersoll and Hon. j. NJ.
